kräuter depot, berlin, 2002

interior design for a herb depot with a tea bar.

client: galini gmbh, berlin

the chinese herb depot receives its character through the prominent design language of the furniture as well as the fine coordination of light and colours. a tea bar is situated beside a seating area with the colours of the depot. the curved form of the bar forms a juxtuposition to the strict geometrical form of the floor-to-ceiling cabinets with more than 300 drawers and is repeated in the form of the tea bar. the light cubes on the wall of the seating area are freely arranged. the wooden flooring made of bamboo and the grass wallpaper show the east asian influence in design which is enhanced by the use of transparent materials. warm light from direct and indirect sources completes the harmonic design concept of all components.
